Patent EP-1264299-A1 (EP)
Inventor: REMY MAURICE
IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 2001-03-07
Abstract: A method of encoding a digitised image including several pixel lines, which consists in encoding one line with a series of sub-codes characteristic of the length of the successive fields and their colour. When the image includes several identical successive lines, the method encodes the first one of the successive lines and completes with a sub-code characterising the repetition of the line and the number of times the line is repeated following the first line. When the image includes several lines including the same succession of colours, the method encodes the first one of the several lines including the same successive code and completes the code with a succession of sub-codes characterising the repetition of the succession of colours and the length of different fields of the different lines.

detecting code to generate a delay signal, and an auto-correlation
circuit (the arithmetic operating unit 183, the
adder 184, the registers 186E, 186P and 186L, etc. ) for
performing three auto-correlation operations (Early),
(Punctual) and (Late) between the input signal or the delay

Abstract: A data read request for a logical address N log  is
supplied from a host system to a memory apparatus (at
step S21). At step S23, a data processing portion
calculates a physical block number N phy  corresponding to
the logical address N log  and values N BASE  and N MUL  of
mapping reference information. At steps S24 and S25,
with reference to an unusable block correlation table,
it is determined that N phy  is not an unusable block.
When N phy  is an unusable block, the flow advances to
step S26. At step S26, a substitute block number is
used instead of N phy . At step S27, N phy  is read from a
memory portion. The read data is supplied from the
data processing portion to a communicating portion.
The communicating portion supplies the read data to the
host system (at step S30).
